Cats, Dogs, Horses

K. Abrahamzon

D.V.M.

Dr. Abrahamzon came to us from a veterinary practice in Oshkosh, WI. She is a 1991 graduate from the University of Wisconsin in Madison. She has made her daily commute from Lincoln to work with us since March 1993.
Dermatology is a special interest of Dr. Abrahamzon. She finds working with the skin problems of animals a fun challenge. She also sees the importance of preventative health care and enjoys working with pet owners to provide that care and strengthen the human-pet-veterinarian bond.
She keeps busy at home as she enjoys riding and showing her Quarter Horses. She also spends time with her dog, Bailey, and her many cats.

A. Erickson

D.V.M.

Dr. Erickson started at Ralston Veterinary Clinic as a veterinary school intern and was hired in June 1976.
Dr. Erickson has seen many changes in pet owner awareness. Owners have become more knowledgeable and involved in the health and nutrition of their pet. The one thing Dr. Erickson has seen that has not changed is the loyal support of our many clients who trust the care of their pets to us.
Dr. Erickson enjoys providing client education, doing orthopedic surgery and working on difficult internal medicine cases.
Away from work, Dr. Erickson enjoys his childrens' sports and school activities. Basketball, softball, golf, and trips to the mountains are the recreational areas he looks forward to during his off-time.

J. Tracy

D.V.M.

Dr. Tracy is a graduate of Kansas State University. She joined our HealthCare Team the summer of 2000. During her studies, Dr. Tracy showed a special interest in working with a wide variety of animals and had the opportunity to work with many during her preceptorship at the Henry Doorly Zoo. She enjoyed caring for the reptiles and other zoo animals. She is eager to learn all she can about domestic pets.
Dr. Tracy's hobbies include volleyball, drawing and painting, and various crafts.

S. Kluch

D.V.M.

Dr. Kluch joined Ralston Vet after his graduation from Kansas State University College of Veterinary Medicine this spring. He is a Papillion High School graduate and completed his undergraduate studies at UNO. Dr. Kluch is glad to practice veterinary medicine in familiar territory. He finds soft tissue and orthopedic surgery interesting. He also enjoys the fields of ophthalmology and emergency medicine.
Dr. Kluch and his wife, Cathy, have 2 young sons. Golf, scuba diving and swimming are at the top of his hobby list. We are pleased to add him to our professional staff.

N.B. Jernigan

D.V.M.

Dr. Jernigan has been a familiar face at Ralston Veterinary Clinic since 1965. After 2 years of duty in the Army he returned to Ralston Veterinary Clinic in 1968 and has remained since.
His face may be more familiar in the countryside surrounding the Omaha area. "Doc" or "Dr. J" are the more familiar names we've heard his large animal clients call him. He enjoys doctoring horses, pigs, and cattle and puts many miles on his truck. The stories Dr. Jernigan has gathered in his country work could undoubtedly fill a book. He begins and ends his business day in the clinic as he also works on our beloved pets.
The 30+ years of practicing veterinary medicine has given Dr. Jernigan many opportunities to travel to numerous U.S. cities and abroad for veterinary medical conventions. He has enjoyed his travel time while furthering his veterinary education. Aside from his work and traveling, Dr. Jernigan enjoys spending time with his young grandson.
Those who have worked with Dr. Jernigan will agree that throughout his years at Ralston Veterinary Clinic he has displayed a constant positive attitude (through fire, tornado, flooding and power outages) while maintaining a keen sense of high business ethics.

L. Mansfield

D.V.M.

Prior to veterinary medicine, Dr. Mansfield taught junior high English in Bellevue in the 1970's. Now she often cares for the pets of her grown students. With her teaching background, Dr. Mansfield communicates easily with her clients. She enjoys treating and diagnosing her sick patients and providing wellness exams. This allows her to have more interaction with her patients and clients.
Dr. Mansfield is very involved with the Nebraska Veterinary Medical Association. She has helped plan several Continuing Education meetings and serves on the board.
When away from the clinic, Dr. Mansfield enjoys country dancing with her husband, long walks, camping in Colorado and caring for her many pets.
